Do you think "sugar dating" is only a pastime for wealthy business owners and investors?
In fact, even ordinary office workers can enjoy a sugar daddy lifestyle without putting a strain on their finances, as long as they know how to manage their budget properly and how to have fun within their means.
Therefore, in this article, we will discuss the cost per session of sugar dating."The going rate for sugar dating"We'll thoroughly explain everything from the "total monthly budget" for each activity style to "hidden expenses" that are surprisingly often overlooked.
Teacher Yumiko
This is Yumiko-sensei, 36 years old.
I've been involved in "sugar dating" for 5 years, and so far I've met about 50 men and earned a total of approximately 900 million yen.
The average monthly income is around 20 to 30 yen. I've had relationships with financially well-off married men, and I've almost been caught by their wives.
What is the budget breakdown for "sugar dating"? First, let's find out the going rate "per session".

When you become interested in "sugar dating," the first thing you'll probably wonder about is the going rate for each initial meeting or date.
You often see a wide range of amounts of money being thrown around on social media and message boards.
However, if you don't know the going rate, you might end up agreeing to the amount the other party asks for and finding out that you received a higher-than-average payment.
Conversely, offering a price lower than the market rate might result in being rejected by women, so either way, it's a recipe for failure.
Refer to the table below to get an idea of the typical costs for different types of dates.
| Message | Market | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| Meet in Person | 5,000 yen to 1 million yen | - Greetings and checking compatibility upon first meeting - Often includes transportation costs and lasts 30 minutes to an hour at a cafe. |
| Meals only | 1 10,000 to 3 10,000 yen | For lunch, the price is around 1 yen, and for dinner, it's roughly 2 to 3 yen. |
| Adult-free date | 1 10,000 to 5 10,000 yen | It varies depending on whether you live in an urban or rural area, and on the woman's age and appearance. |
| Adult date | 3 10,000 to 10 10,000 yen | It varies depending on whether you live in an urban or rural area, and on the woman's age and appearance. |
| Regular adult not included (monthly) | 10 10,000 to 30 10,000 yen | This is often cheaper than a recurring contract where you meet multiple times a month, or pay per meeting, and is usually cheaper than having an adult involved. |
| Regular adult pass available (monthly) | 15 10,000 to 50 10,000 yen | - A recurring contract involving multiple meetings per month is often cheaper than paying per meeting. - Frequency of meetings, age, and appearance of the woman vary. |
| Median in PATOLO | 5 million yen | Median allowance per date arranged by our company |
If you only want to meet in person, it can start from around 5,000 yen.
For those who imagined that sugar dating would cost around 5 yen each time, this might seem like a surprisingly low hurdle.
The amount shown here is only the allowance portion; in reality, expenses such as meals, transportation, and hotel costs will be added on top of that.
Why is it important to consider a "budget" in sugar dating?

In sugar dating, it's important to know the going rate and to set a budget beforehand.
If you don't set a budget, in the worst-case scenario, your life could fall apart, or you might end up in financial trouble with a woman.
From here, I will explain the importance of budgeting for sugar dating in three parts.
To avoid regretting excessive spending
Setting a budget for sugar dating is necessary to prevent excessive spending and protect your own life and future.
For many men, it's natural to want to make a good impression on the woman they're with and not want to be seen as stingy.
Teacher Yumiko
However, if that vanity escalates, it can lead to irreparable consequences.
For example, consider the following case.
- Cut living expenses to make it an allowance
- I'm using my savings for future expenses for my sugar daddy activities.
- They promised to buy an expensive gift, counting on their bonus.
As a result, living expenses and savings run out, and in the worst cases, it's not uncommon for people to resort to borrowing money.
Teacher Yumiko
Sugar dating should only be enjoyed with surplus funds.
It's not something you should do at the expense of your living expenses or savings for the future.
By setting a budget and engaging in activities within reasonable limits, you can enjoy sugar dating without putting a strain on your finances.
To avoid financial troubles
Setting a budget is also necessary for building and maintaining a relationship of trust with the woman you're with.
Continuing sugar dating without setting a budget increases the likelihood of financial problems with your partner.
The main financial troubles are as follows:
Discrepancy in allowance amounts
The woman is dissatisfied, saying, "It was only X yen last time...", while the man claims, "I never made such a promise," leading to a disagreement and a deterioration of their relationship.
Relationship deteriorates due to mismatch in expectations
Women expect a fixed monthly fee, while men only want to meet when they can, leading to dissatisfaction due to the mismatch in their expectations.
The woman's demands are escalating.
As a result of the vague agreement, the price increases through negotiations by the woman.
Once you agree, the demands escalate, and the man becomes increasingly dissatisfied.To prevent such problems, it's important to clearly define your spending limits from the outset and communicate them to the other party.
Setting a budget beforehand allows you to honestly communicate, "This is as much I can spend as possible."
Teacher Yumiko
Clearly defining the amount is essential for building trust with the other party.
To enjoy it purely without worrying about money
Setting a budget gives you peace of mind, allowing you to truly enjoy sugar dating.
If you don't have a budget set, even while on a date with a woman, you'll be constantly worried about how much it's going to cost.
If you're so worried about money that you can't concentrate on the conversation and can't even taste the food properly, you won't be able to enjoy your date.
On the other hand, setting a budget offers the following advantages:
- He can behave confidently around women.
- You can focus on conversation and meals without worrying about money.
- You can enjoy it without guilt as long as it's within your budget.
Since you won't have any guilt about things like "I might have overspent," you'll be able to enjoy yourself even after the date.
Teacher Yumiko
To truly enjoy sugar dating in the long term, it's important to clearly define your budget.
Three steps to creating a successful sugar daddy budget.

From here, I will explain how to determine a specific budget for sugar dating in three steps.
If you decide on the amount without a clear plan, you might regret it later or find yourself unable to continue sugar dating.
However, by following these three steps, you will be able to establish clear standards for yourself and truly enjoy sugar dating.
1. Accurately understand your own "financial strength".
Step 1 requires you to completely eliminate emotions and objectively calculate and understand the amount of money you can freely spend.
The calculation method involves subtracting fixed expenses and savings from disposable income to determine the maximum amount of money you can freely spend each month.
According to the Statistics Bureau of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications' "Explanation of Terms in the Household Expenditure Survey," disposable income is the amount remaining after deducting non-consumption expenditures such as taxes and social insurance premiums from income; it is what is commonly known as take-home pay.
Source: Statistics Bureau of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and CommunicationsExplanation of terms used in the Household Expenditure Survey'
The calculation is performed using the following specific steps.
Calculation flow for "discretionary spending money"
Check your net income
Check the amount deposited into your account on your payslip.
Subtract fixed and variable costs
Subtract all expenses that you will inevitably have to pay, such as rent, utilities, and living expenses.
Subtract savings
First, deduct the amount of money you want to save for the future.
The remaining amount is the upper budget.
Within this budget, I will cover all my hobbies, social expenses, and expenses related to sugar dating.
For example, if someone earns 30 yen after taxes, has fixed expenses of 18 yen, and savings of 5 yen, their maximum disposable income is 7 yen.
Since I also have to pay for other hobbies and drinking outings out of this 7 yen, the amount I can use for sugar dating is even more limited.
Teacher Yumiko
If you start without doing this calculation, thinking "5 yen a month should be fine," you could run out of funds after a few months.
2. Determine the minimum level of commitment that allows you to maintain "mental well-being."
In Step 2, you'll determine an amount from the maximum limit that you can comfortably spend without feeling burdened, by reflecting on your emotions.
In Step 1, you were able to determine the maximum amount you can freely spend, but this limit is not the amount you should always spend every month.
Teacher Yumiko
For example, if you were theoretically allowed to spend up to 40,000 yen per month, and you consistently spent exactly that amount each month, would you be able to maintain peace of mind?
It might start off well, but eventually you might find yourself thinking things like, "I'm barely making ends meet this month," or "I need to cut back a bit next month," while engaging in sugar dating.
Please use the following as a reference to decide on a line that you won't regret.
Final check! What's the line you won't regret?
The resulting figure will likely be lower than the upper limit.
For example, if the upper limit is 4 yen, the price range you won't regret might be 2 to 3 yen.
This amount is your actual budget for sugar dating.
Teacher Yumiko
Rather than making decisions based solely on numbers, confronting your own emotions is necessary to enjoy sugar dating in the long run.
3. Make a commitment to view the relationship with the other person as an "investment."
The final step is establishing the right mindset.
The budget you set in Step 2 is not simply money for consumption or waste.
Think of the money you spend on sugar dating not as something that simply disappears, but as an investment in creating enriching experiences for both yourself and your partner.
Teacher Yumiko
I believe that spending time with an attractive woman, the excitement and relaxation you get that you don't normally experience, and your own personal growth are things that money can't buy.
Viewing it as an investment offers the following advantages:
- The guilt about spending money disappears.
- I become more careful in choosing a woman, considering the cost-effectiveness.
- Being able to seriously engage with the other person
- You can grow as a person.
- It helps with work and daily motivation.
Once you've decided on a budget for your sugar daddy activities, make sure you have the mindset that you're investing this amount in yourself.
With this mindset, you'll no longer hesitate about how to spend your money, and you'll be able to enjoy sugar dating even more.
Is sugar dating possible with your annual income? Balancing income and budget

When starting out in "sugar dating," many people are probably wondering, "Is it actually possible to do sugar dating with my own annual income?"
From here, we will explain realistic budgets and recommended styles based on annual income.
Please use the income range closest to your own as a reference to help you simulate the possibilities of "sugar dating."
Is it possible to earn 300-400 million yen per year (single, living with parents)?
In short, it is possible, provided you are single and living with your parents.
When engaging in "sugar dating" (compensated dating) within this income bracket, the conditions are crucial.
With a take-home pay of around 20 to 30 yen per month, after paying rent for a single person or mortgage payments for a married person, there's almost no money left for discretionary spending.
To avoid the risk of financial ruin, this is not recommended for anyone other than single people living with their parents.
For an average company employee with an annual income of 500 to 600 million yen
In short, it is possible with some ingenuity.
In this income bracket, budget management is key to success in sugar dating.
My take-home pay is around 30 to 40 yen per month, so I'm certainly not well-off.
It can be enjoyable even when living alone, but you need to be careful because if you're not careful, it can quickly put a strain on your living expenses.
For those with an annual income of 1000 million yen or more (high-income earners/business owners)
You can enjoy yourself comfortably within the mainstream of the sugar daddy market.
At this income level, the options for "sugar dating" (compensated dating) expand significantly.
Once your annual income exceeds 1000 million yen, you'll have more financial freedom, allowing you to enjoy full-course dates including meals at high-end restaurants, travel, and shopping trips, and you'll be able to attract high-caliber women.
but,Even with an annual income of 1000 million yen, spending it lavishly can lead to a cash shortage.
Teacher Yumiko
Furthermore, you should not try to compete with the ultra-wealthy (those with hundreds of millions of yen in assets).
It's important to set a budget limit and play with self-control.
[By Style] Average Allowances and Monthly Budgets for Sugar Dating

Here, we'll explain the realistic total cost, including not only the allowance but also expenses such as app fees and food and drink costs, for each style of "sugar dating."
Try reading this while imagining what style you want to aim for.
Enjoying meals on your pocket money | A "dinner date/tea-drinking friend" course for under 5 yen per month
This is for those new to sugar dating, married individuals, or those who want to try it out first.
This style is easy to start on a low budget, doesn't seek adult relationships, and is simply about enjoying conversations over cafes or meals.
As a "tea and meal dad," you'll likely experience less financial and emotional burden.
The following is an estimated budget based on three face-to-face meetings and one dinner date per month.
The going rate for a first meeting or tea date is 5,000 to 1 yen, and often includes transportation costs.
The going rate for a meal date is around 1 yen for lunch and 2 to 3 yen for dinner including alcohol.
However, it's important to cleverly combine lunch and dinner options to stay within budget.
Teacher Yumiko
Beginners and married individuals should start with this course to get a feel for the world of "sugar dating."
Deeply involved with one specific person | Monthly "regular relationship with adult" course (15-20 yen)
This course represents the most common style of "sugar dating."
I meet with a specific woman a few times a month, and our relationship includes not only meals but also a physical relationship.
By establishing a continuous relationship, often referred to as a "regular contract," mutual trust will develop, allowing for deeper and more meaningful interactions.
The following is an estimated budget for two dates without adults and two dates with adults per month, paid for each time.
The going rate for a date with an adult ranges from 30,000 to 100,000 yen per date, and varies depending on whether it's in an urban or rural area, as well as the age and appearance of the other person.
It's common to start with 3 to 5 yen for the first meeting, and then adjust the amount as the relationship deepens.
Furthermore, there are mainly two types of payment methods for allowances: "on a per-use" and "regular" payments.
Let's look at the features and budget examples for each option.
Payment methods and budget examples for "regular" and "one-time" payments.
Pay as you go
A system where you pay an allowance each time you meet.
- No adults:30,000 to 100,000 yen per session
- Adults present:30,000 to 100,000 yen per session
Regular contract
Monthly subscription model
- No adults:Monthly salary of 10 to 30 yen
(Assuming we meet 2-4 times a month) - Adults present:Monthly salary of 15 to 50 yen
(Assuming we meet 2-4 times a month)
It is often cheaper than paying each time.
Regular contracts make budget management easier because both parties can anticipate how many times they will meet each month.
Teacher Yumiko
Once a relationship of trust has been established, one approach is to suggest switching to a regular contract.
Enjoy elegant company with multiple beautiful women | "Simulated Romance/Sugar Daddy" course starting from 50 yen per month
This is for business owners, high-income earners, and people who have money to spare and want to enjoy luxuries.
This style involves enjoying luxurious dates with high-class women without setting any budget limits.
He'll likely be known as a "sugar daddy" and become very popular with women.
It's possible to have relationships with multiple women simultaneously, and you can enjoy all the pleasures of sugar dating, such as trips and gifts of designer goods.
The following is an estimated budget for two dates without adults and two dates with adults per month, paid for each time.
In this course, you'll be able to enjoy a simulated romance that goes beyond mere monetary exchange.
They spend time together like a real couple, going on dates and traveling, but maintain a purely transactional relationship.
However, these kinds of romantic experiences require a reasonable budget and some financial leeway.
Teacher Yumiko
No matter how high your income, your assets will dwindle if you continue to spend without a plan, so you should set an annual spending limit.
Be aware of "hidden costs" in addition to allowances.

When considering a budget for "sugar dating," one expense that is often overlooked is expenses other than the allowance.
If you only calculate allowances and create a budget based on that, the actual costs will be higher than expected, which can lead to a shortage of funds.
Here, we'll explain in detail some often overlooked hidden costs.
Monthly membership fees and point costs for sugar daddy apps
For men to start engaging in "sugar dating," paying for a subscription app is essential.
The going rate for men using sugar daddy apps is around 1 yen per month.
In addition, some apps require points to send messages or view profiles.
While it's not impossible to find someone using free apps and social media, this is dangerous.
Free apps and social media platforms are often breeding grounds for fraudulent businesses, blackmail schemes, and other troubles.
Furthermore, since age verification is not mandatory, there are likely women under 18 who are operating under false ages.
Teacher Yumiko
Please consider using paid apps that require identity verification as a necessary expense for safely enjoying sugar dating.
Dating expenses (food, drinks, hotel, transportation)
In addition to the allowance, it is considered good manners for the man to cover all the expenses related to the date.
Specifically, the following costs will be incurred:
- Food and drink expenses: Pay not only for your own share but also for the other person's.
- Hotel expenses: Required if there is an adult relationship.
- Transportation expenses: You may be responsible for the other party's transportation expenses (they are often included in initial meetings).
- Taxi fare: If it's late at night or if you're dropping someone off.
For example, the expenses other than the allowance for a date with an adult are as follows:
| Breakdown | Amount of money |
|---|---|
| Dinner food and drink expenses | ¥10,000 |
| Hotel fee | ¥8,000 |
| TAXI | ¥3,000 |
| Total | ¥21,000 |
Aside from the allowance, it's not uncommon for a single date to cost over 20,000 yen.
Teacher Yumiko
Those who exceed their budget by simply calculating that a 30,000 yen allowance means 90,000 yen for three visits a month are failing to factor in these additional costs.
Gift and surprise expenses
Gifts aren't mandatory, but if you want to maintain a long-term relationship, it's a good idea to set aside a budget for birthdays and other special occasions.
The amount varies depending on the relationship and the type of payment, but it's generally around 1 to 5 yen.
Teacher Yumiko
There's no need to give expensive brand-name items; simply choose a gift that suits the recipient's taste.
Conversely, completely ignoring birthdays or special events can lower the other person's motivation and potentially cause the relationship to cool down.
How to ask about and communicate your budget in a way that leaves a good impression on women [with examples]

In sugar dating, negotiating the amount of money with the other party is unavoidable.
However, if you ask or communicate incorrectly, you can ruin a valuable relationship.
This section explains how to discuss the budget while making a good impression on a woman, along with specific examples.
First, we ask questions to hear the woman's wishes.
The question-based approach is a method of negotiation where you first ask about the other party's wishes before proceeding.
The question format offers the following advantages:
Three advantages of using a question-and-answer format for confirmation
It shows respect for the other person.
The attitude of "I'd like to hear your opinion" conveys respect and consideration for the woman's viewpoint.
Making it easier for women to speak their minds
Some women feel pressured to meet a price if it's presented upfront. A question-and-answer format allows them to answer at their own pace.
You can understand the other party's market outlook.
This helps you understand what level of service the woman is looking for and whether it fits your budget.
Even if price negotiation is unavoidable, it's rude to suddenly ask "How much do you want?", even if it's phrased as a question.
The key to effective listening is to use softening phrases to make the sentences sound gentler.
- If it's not rude
- If you do not mind
- If you don't mind,
Using such language allows you to enter into negotiations naturally while being considerate of the other party.
Let's look at some good example questions that use softening phrases.
Examples and key points for polite questioning.
[OK example sentence ①]
"I'm looking forward to meeting you. If it's not too much trouble, do you have any preferred amount of money you'd like to offer?"
point:The phrases "if it's not too rude" and "in terms of your feelings" soften the bluntness.
[OK Example Sentence ②]
"I'd like to get to know you better, [Name]. If you don't mind, could you tell me if you have any preferences regarding compensation? I'd like to adjust it within reasonable limits."
point:The phrase "adjust within reasonable limits" shows a respectful attitude towards the other party's wishes.
Teacher Yumiko
Both example sentences show consideration for the other person while also asking about their desired allowance.
Furthermore, before getting to the main topic, using positive language with the other person will make it easier for the woman to speak her true feelings.
Examples of incorrect ways of asking questions that require a little caution.
[NG Example ①]
"So, how much do you want?"
Explanation:It's too direct and lacks class. It gives the impression that you're judging the other person.
[NG Example 2]
"How much will the allowance be? I'd like to decide that upfront."
Explanation:It's polite, but too businesslike. It comes across as prioritizing efficiency above all else.
It's not simply a matter of asking questions; choosing your words carefully and showing empathy are also important.
Many women probably find it difficult to discuss the amount of their allowance.
Teacher Yumiko
Please include politeness and consideration in your messages so that women feel comfortable speaking their minds.
We propose a budget; this is a "proposal-based" approach.
In some cases, a more proactive approach, where you propose a price upfront, can lead to a smoother negotiation.
The following are situations where a proposal-based approach is effective:
- If you want to take the lead
- When the other person says, "I'll leave it to you"
- When the message exchange is dragging on and you want to move the conversation forward
- When a woman is new to sugar dating and seems hesitant to ask for money
If you plan to use a proposal-based service, be sure to understand the market rates beforehand.
Offering a price that is far below the going rate may lead to the impression that "this person is stingy" or "they don't know anything about sugar dating."
Teacher Yumiko
In the worst-case scenario, you'll be blocked immediately, and continuing the relationship will be impossible.
Please refer to the market rates in this article to determine the amount you are willing to offer, and then refer to the example sentences for guidance.
Examples of how to communicate your budget in a sincere way
[OK example sentence ①]
"Regarding compensation, I was thinking of starting with around XX yen (the going rate). What do you think? Of course, once we've met and gotten to know each other, I'd like to discuss it again."
point:Instead of making a unilateral decision, they are seeking the other party's opinion. Furthermore, they are indicating their willingness to negotiate in the future.
[OK Example Sentence ②]
"To be honest, my budget is around ¥XX (market price), which is about what I can comfortably afford. I'm not sure if I can meet your request, but if you're interested, I'd like to meet and discuss it further."
point:The phrase "to be honest" conveys sincerity. By clearly stating the budget while also expressing a desire to meet, it shows that the relationship is not just about money.
In a proposal-based approach, we will propose a price, but we will always maintain a negotiating attitude, asking, "How about this price?"
If you can't increase the price, be honest about it, and show your genuine feelings by saying that you still want to meet them because you find them attractive.
Smart negotiation techniques when your desired price exceeds your budget.
It's not uncommon for men to find that a woman's desired price exceeds their own budget.
How you handle this situation will determine whether or not you can continue your relationship with the other person in the future.
As a mindset before entering into negotiations, I make sure never to reject the other party's wishes.
The worst possible response is to immediately dismiss it by saying, "It's too expensive" or "I can't afford that much."
The amount the other person is asking for is also a reflection of the value the woman places on herself, and denying that is tantamount to denying the other person's very existence.
Teacher Yumiko
Even if it exceeds the budget, the key to a gentlemanly approach is to first acknowledge the other party's wishes.
Here are three steps to smart negotiation:
Three steps to successful, smart negotiations
Gratitude and affirmation
First, I would express my gratitude for them sharing their wishes and explain that the offer is worth the price.
Honestly explain your situation.
I'm not making excuses; I'm stating my budget limit as a fact.
Carefully present alternative solutions.
Instead of lowering the price, I suggest we adjust other conditions (such as how often we meet or what we do on dates).
Based on these three steps, here are some good example phrases for negotiations.
[OK example sentence]
"It's XX yen, thank you for letting me know. I think it's worth that much for you, XX. To be honest, my budget is limited to about △△ yen, but I'd like to use that to choose a nice restaurant for dinner and cherish the time I spend with you, XX. If you're interested, would you like to meet up first?"
point:They don't reject the other party's wishes, but honestly explain their own situation. They highlight values other than price (quality of food, importance of time), making it a sincere negotiation rather than just haggling.
If you don't offer an alternative to lowering the price, it will just come across as a haggling attempt.
Teacher Yumiko
If you can find areas where you can make adjustments within your own capabilities and propose them, the chances of the negotiation being successful will increase.
Next, here are some example sentences for when negotiations end unsuccessfully.
[OK example sentence]
"That's about ¥XX, which I think is reasonable considering how appealing you are. However, to be honest, it's difficult for me to afford. It's a shame, as I enjoyed talking with you, but I guess it wasn't meant to be... I hope you have a wonderful encounter."
point:Even if negotiations fail, I maintain a gentlemanly demeanor until the very end. I don't blame the other party, but instead explain my situation as my own.
Even if negotiations fail, please maintain a gentlemanly demeanor.
If you behave like a gentleman until the very end, it may lead to an unexpected new encounter.
Teacher Yumiko
There's a small chance the other person might be more willing to compromise, thinking, "He's such a gentleman."
A man who can accept that it wasn't meant to be and end things gracefully will likely make a very good impression on women.

[Personal Experience] Risks and Failures Caused by Unrealistic Budget Setting

It's important to know from real-life examples of failures that unrealistic budgeting can lead to disastrous results.
Now, I'll share two stories about my failed attempts at "sugar dating."
Learn from the mistakes of others and avoid making the same errors.
Going too far with appearances leads to a debt spiral... The fate of a 40-year-old man who dipped into his living expenses.
Stories of failures caused by vanity
Ms. A (40s, married, annual income 600 million yen)
The woman I met through the dating app was pretty much my ideal type.
I was naive to think that "3 yen a month would be fine" given my own income.For the first month, our dates mainly consisted of lunches at cafes and dinner dates.
"I have fun when I'm with A." "I feel safe when I'm with A."
She would compliment me every time we met, and I was completely swept off my feet by her words.
My desire to deepen our relationship and my unwillingness to let her go grew stronger and stronger, and I continued to act like a man who was more than I actually was.
Dinner at a high-end restaurant, designer gifts, meeting in the lounge of a luxury hotel.
I had long since used up the cash allocated for my budget, and was using my living expenses to fund my sugar daddy activities.
I paid the remaining amount with my credit card, thinking, "I'll pay it back with next month's bonus."
However, in reality, my bonus disappeared into household expenses, and I was forced to use revolving credit payments for my credit cards... Before I knew it, tens of thousands of yen were disappearing every month just in interest.
Despite his continued attempts to maintain appearances, he resorted to taking out cash advances, which eventually led to his wife becoming suspicious and discovering his debts, nearly causing the collapse of his family.
I managed to avoid divorce, but I'm no longer in a position to engage in sugar dating, and now I spend my days working side jobs to pay off my debts.
What we can learn from Ms. A's experience is the importance of having a budget that is appropriate for your means.
No matter how attractive a woman is, if she does more than what she deserves, she won't be able to continue sugar dating.
He suddenly became stingy due to running out of funds, and the tragedy of women exposing him for "not paying their allowances" was unfortunate.
A story of failure caused by trying too hard to act like a doting dad.
Ms. B (30s, single, annual income of 500 million yen)
For the first few months of sugar dating, I couldn't find the ideal woman. I started to feel that "good women are only interested in wealthy sugar daddies," so I began to play the role of a wealthy sugar daddy.
I knew the going rate for compensation, but when I offered a higher amount than the average, the woman's reaction changed completely. Of course, my suggestions for meals were mainly for high-end restaurants.
I finally found a woman I liked, and she completely believed I was her sugar daddy. We started seeing each other a few times a month, and our relationship was going well. She started contacting me more often and even inviting me to meet up.
However, a few months later, I was shocked when I saw my credit card statement. The amount was much higher than I had anticipated. Even so, I didn't want to give up sugar dating, so I tried to come up with some ways to manage it.
As a result, I ended up making repeated requests for deferred payments or reduced payments, such as "This month is a bit tough" or "Can we reduce the amount a little this time?"
After a while, contact with the woman ceased. Ultimately, he was exposed on a sugar daddy forum with comments like "failed to pay allowance" and "acted nice at first, then quickly became stingy."
After that, it became difficult to get matches on other apps as well, and even when I did get a match, the conversations wouldn't continue... I had no choice but to completely withdraw from sugar dating.
What we can learn from B's experience is that when funding runs out, relationships end.
Furthermore, the deterioration of relationships with women, as well as the withdrawal from sugar dating, can be seen as a heavy price to pay for pushing oneself too hard.
Tips for increasing satisfaction while keeping your budget down in sugar dating

It's natural to want to meet the best possible partner within a limited budget.
Here are three specific techniques to increase customer satisfaction while keeping costs down.
You can enjoy sugar dating even on a low budget, depending on how you do it, so please use this as a reference.
Looking for "sugar daddy beginners" or "amateur women" with low rates
There are broadly two types of women who engage in "sugar dating" (compensated dating).
- Professional sugar baby
- Amateur/Beginner Sugar Baby Girls
Teacher Yumiko
If you want to keep costs down, aim for the latter option.
Amateur and beginner sugar babies are those who have a main job and started sugar dating as a way to earn some extra pocket money.
Since they have other sources of income, they tend not to be too concerned about market prices.
Conversely, professional sugar babies are more likely to make a living solely from this, so their rates are higher and they are accustomed to negotiating.
Please refer to the table below to distinguish between beginner and amateur women.
Women who are proficient in using industry jargon are highly professional, and you should assume that it will be difficult to meet them for a price below the market rate.
Conversely, for beginners or amateurs, if their values and feelings align, there's a high probability they can meet someone for a price below the market rate.
Avoid dinner at high-end restaurants and make use of lunch and cafes.
One way to significantly reduce your date budget is by having lunch or coffee during the daytime.
The estimated cost of dinner and lunch is as follows:
| Time of day and place | Per person guideline | Total for 2 people |
|---|---|---|
| Dinner (course meal + alcohol) | 1.5 10,000 to 2.5 10,000 yen | 3 10,000 to 5 10,000 yen |
| Lunch courses (even at high-end restaurants) | 3,000-5,000 yen | 6,000 yen to 1 million yen |
| Cafe Lounge | 1,500-2,000 yen | 3,000-4,000 yen |
It's not uncommon for the price to differ by 3 to 5 times between dinner and lunch at the same restaurant.
If you want to enjoy the sophisticated atmosphere of a high-end restaurant while keeping your budget down, take advantage of lunchtime.
For tips on how to politely invite someone to lunch, please refer to the following.
Examples of polite ways to invite someone to lunch
"For our first meeting, I'd like to have a serious conversation without alcohol, so how about tea or lunch?"
"I have a dinner engagement in the evening, so lunchtime would be ideal."
"It's a popular restaurant, and it's difficult to get a reservation for dinner, but it seems like it might be possible to get a reservation for lunch. What do you think?"
It's not acceptable to honestly say, "I don't have any money, so let's have lunch."

A sincere attitude and explaining that you're busy can reassure the woman.
For women, it's easier on the wallet during the day than at night, and it's also more affordable for men, so there are benefits for both parties.
Negotiation techniques to lower the unit price on a monthly basis, in exchange for a long-term relationship.
By switching from pay-per-date (payment for each date) to a fixed monthly fee, you can lower the cost per date.
A fixed monthly fee means that you and your partner decide together how many times you will meet each month, similar to a subscription service.
Benefits of a fixed monthly fee (regular contract)
A fixed monthly payment plan offers advantages to both the woman and the man.
Benefits for women
- It makes it easier to make plans.
- The stability of receiving a fixed amount of money every month
- Free yourself from the stress of searching for a daddy and dealing with last-minute cancellations.
男性のメリット
- It can be cheaper overall than paying per session.
- Negotiations will no longer be necessary each time.
- Relationships become more stable, and trust deepens.
[Specific example] If you meet four times a month
Pay-as-you-go:3 yen x 4 times a month = 12 million yen
Regular contract:A contract to meet four times a month for 100,000 yen per month = Save 2 yen
Since the woman also benefits from a stable income, it becomes easier to negotiate more favorable terms than paying per transaction.
Since the woman also benefits from a stable income, she may be able to negotiate more favorable terms than paying per transaction.
When transitioning from a pay-per-use model to a fixed monthly fee, be mindful of the timing of your proposal.
Teacher Yumiko
It's a bad idea to suggest a monthly contract or a fixed rate when meeting someone for the first time.
You might be suspected of fraud, with people asking, "Are you trying to deceive us?"
Please make the suggestion after you've met two or three times and both of you feel like you want to continue the relationship.
Furthermore, if you require full payment upfront on a monthly basis, there's a risk that the recipient might receive the money and then disappear without a trace, potentially running off with the money.
To hedge against monthly contract risks, consider the following methods.
- Divided in the middle of the moon
- I hand over a portion each time we meet, and give the remaining balance all at once at the end of the month.
Teacher Yumiko
Until a relationship of trust is established, be sure to implement risk management strategies.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Here, we will answer frequently asked questions regarding budgets for sugar dating.
Let's alleviate some of your anxieties so you can start sugar dating with peace of mind.
What is the minimum budget I should start with for "sugar dating"?
Including expenses and contingency funds, I'd like to have around 3 to 5 yen per month.
The breakdown would be app fees (approximately 10,000 yen) + several face-to-face meetings (10,000-20,000 yen) + one dinner date (10,000-20,000 yen), so you'll need at least 30,000 yen.
Considering unexpected expenses and transportation costs, having a budget of around 5 yen will allow you to carry out your activities with peace of mind.
Does the payment for a dinner date include transportation costs?
While it's generally done separately, it's also possible to negotiate a payment that includes the allowance.
Generally speaking, it's considered good manners to give them around 1,000 to 3,000 yen as transportation expenses in addition to their allowance.
However, if you state upfront that "the allowance will be XX yen including transportation costs," it may be possible to negotiate for that amount to be included.
Please adjust the distance based on the other person's location.
Do the going rates for compensation vary by region?
Prices tend to be higher in urban areas like Tokyo and Osaka, and slightly lower in rural areas.

According to PATOLO's median allowance amounts by residential area, the going rate tends to be lower in rural areas compared to urban areas like Tokyo and Osaka.
Since rates vary depending on the area of activity, it's important to understand the going rates in your area.
